Spacek Labs combines conventional waveguide technology with planar circuit techniques producing full waveguide bandwidth detectors using zero bias GaAs beam lead diodes. The resulting detector is extremely rugged and compact. By replacing the zero bias detector diode with a GaAs beam lead mixer diode; these devices can be used as harmonic mixers to extend frequency counters to 110 GHz.

Moderate & Narrow Band Downconverters

Single Sideband Upconverters

Custom Solutions

Please contact us with your custom requirements. Approximately 30% of our business is custom designed. We will work with your engineers to come up with a cost effective product that will meet all of your specifications.

Mixer Preamplifiers

Standard Features:

RF input 18 to 110 GHz (in bands)

IF output 10 MHz to 20 GHz

Noise figure as low as 2.5 dB DSB

Integrated design

These assemblies consist of our balanced mixer combined with an IF amplifier. The IF amplifier can be in the range of 10 MHz to 20 GHz and can be integrated directly to the mixer or left connectorized for greater versatility. An example not listed below is a mixer with an LO at 44 GHz, RF at 26 to 40 GHz with an IF amplifier covering 4 to 18 GHz. Output P1dB can be as high as 15 to 20 dBm.
